There is no proof but it is certainly possible. USA sure wants to shut him up ( his site ). Anything is possible but I hope no harm comes to him. This is what you get for standing up and speaking the truth... The ruling elite wants to crush any opposition.

The true war criminals ( Shrub , Cheney and gang ) will never be held responsible for their numerous crimes, but a forthright dude like Assange who exposes corruption and manipulation, is gonna get his balls roasted ( same with the army dude who leaked the documents to Assange ) to "set an example" to the world - if you expose us ( the iron fisted elite ) we will CRUSH you... typical...

The U.S. military is coming under increasing criticism over its treatment of U.S. Army whistleblower Private Bradley Manning, who has been held in solitary confinement in a Marine brig since June. Manning’s lawyer says his client is now being stripped of all his clothes every night and forced to remain naked for seven hours. Democratic Rep. Dennis Kucinich of Ohio has compared the treatment of Manning to what happened inside the Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq. A Marine Corps spokesperson said Manning is being held naked to keep him from hurting himself.

Then put him in a psychiatric "white apron" , the same one all prisons use to cloth prisoners who threaten to kill themselves... cannot hang yourself with the thick white one-piece apron , and at least he would have some warmth from the apron at night.

Stripping him nude every night is TORTURE. Even death-row convicted mass murderers are not stripped naked every night... this is almost as bad as water-boarding him...disgusting...

FREE BRADLEY MANNING or at least assign him a court date, and treat him like a POW, not a sub-human creature just to break him... no deaths came of his alleged leaking of the classified documents, contrary to what the fear-mongering gov't/military said would happen when the info went public.

Sure you can convict him if proven he leaked classified info, but torture?? Come on...

The revelation will no doubt have come as a blow to Manning, although given his ongoing treatment it is likely he already feared the worst. Made to endure strict conditions under a prevention of injury order against the advice of military psychiatrists, he is treated like no other prisoner at the 250-capacity Quantico Brig detention facility in Virginia. Despite that he is yet to be convicted of any crime, for the past 218 consecutive days he has been made to live in a cell 6ft wide and 12ft long, without contact with any other detainees. He is not allowed to exercise or have personal effects in his cell, and for the one hour each day he is allowed free from his windowless cell he is taken to an empty room where he is allowed to walk, but not run.

One of the few people to have visited Manning, David House, spoke yesterday of how he had witnessed his friend go from a "bright-eyed intelligent young man" to someone who at times has appeared "catatonic" with "very high difficulty carrying on day to day conversation". House drew similarities with the case of Bobby Dellelo, an American prisoner who developed psychosis after a lengthy period in solitary confinement conditions similar to Manning's. "For me this has been like watching a really good friend succumb to an illness or something," he said. "I think that Bradley Manning is being punished this way because the US government wants him to crack ahead of his trial."

It would be actually kinder to just execute him immediately, rather than torture him daily , he is cracking just like anyone would under such harsh conditions. I consider him a hero, and very sorry to hear of the increasing abuse they are putting him through. Shrub can lie to the world, cause the death and injury of countless Americans and of course M.E. civilians, and get away with it SCOT FREE!!!

Manning simply leaked information on what military/gov't is doing to expose them and seek transparency , no one has been proven to have died yet from his leaking the info, yet he is treated worse than Saddam Hussein was after Saddam was captured. I don't remember hearing that Saddam got stripped naked every night before they hung him... Saddam was a cruel dictator and ordered deaths of his own countrymen, but even he was treated better in custody than Bradley Manning is right now.. what a screwed up world...

If you interfere with the New World Order, they will ensure your destruction...

If there was a Nobel prize for most annoying man alive, Julian Assange would get it, but I don't think he is worth assasinating. His leaks on what politicians in various countries think of each other, and their overseas counterparts are amusing. Not stuff we didn't know already though.
